Recent Trips - Picton Castle And Folly Farm

I've finally sorted through the backlog of images I've taken the last few months, on various cameras, and will post them up over the next couple of posts for anyone interested. I've ordered a battery charger for the spare camera we've got here, so hopefully that one will last a day or two and allow me to take a few more shots.

First up are some photographs of Picton Castle and the grounds. I particularly liked the fernery and walled garden they had there, I would like to go back again one day without Elis and spend a long time looking there. I didn't get much chance as we were busy running around and playing hide and seek and stuff. I also like the carvings on the castle's doorway.

We've also had a couple of trips out to Folly Farm. I really like the place, we ended up getting season tickets so we can go there as often as we want now, I think it's only about 6 trips in the year and the ticket has paid for itself. It's a handy place to go to on a wet day thanks to the extensive indoor play areas and animal pens. I also love the antique fair rides, fruit machines and stalls - it's a really entertaining day out.
